Docosahexaenoic acid supresses breast cancer cell proliferation and migration by promoting the expression of miR-99a and targeting mTOR signaling

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) shows different anti-cancer effects on breast cancer (BC) cell proliferation and progression; however, the underlying molecular mechanism yet still is blanketed in mystery. Herein, we aimed to reveal whether the inhibitory effects of DHA on BC proliferation and migration are exerted, at least in part, through promoting the expression of miR-99a and targeting mTOR signaling. DHA lessened the BC cell viability in a time-...
